While visiting family in Kansas I stopped in The Twisted Petal to order flowers for my husband's…read moregrandmother who recently had surgery. I didn't realize at the time The Twisted Petal was a combo flower shop and coffee shop. When I walked in I was unsure where to go to order flowers. The lady behind the counter must have sensed my uncertainty and asked me how she could help. I told her I wanted to order flowers and she went and got the head florist (who is also the owner, Debbie). Debbie was very nice. She told me she had to finish a funeral arrangement and then she would put a bouquet together. While I waited I ordered an iced coffee from the coffee shop side. They have a great selection of drinks! Debbie put together a beautiful bouquet! (All I specified was I wanted something bright & cheerful.) I know who I'll be contacting when I need flowers for my Kansas family. Friendly staff & great owner!

We said we wasn't going to eat here anymore after the last time ( which was a culinary disaster,…read moreone that would .make Gordon Ramsey rant and spew swear words at the whole kitchen staff). So, from the first time to now, there have good some good food( not to where ya want to write home about) and then there has been food that makes you wonder about who's running the kitchen and if you're being punk'd. From sausage gravy that looked like it from a Fancy Feast gravy and bits can to, cold mozzarella sticks, slightly wilted salad on the salad bar, a mushroom and swiss burger that looked like the kitchen counted out a few mushrooms and put them on the burger, to left over food from the lunch buffet, which was potatoes au gratin( which should NOT be grey) to burnt kitchen( BURNT,the skin was SO dark and fell apart when you tried to pick it up( the cook should of known better and my better half is thankful that I didn't walk that plate to the kitchen). This last time, I got my safe option of a mushroom and swiss with my normal request of extra mushrooms, but this time asked for extra swiss too. My beloved better half had been wanting meatloaf, so tried their meatloaf special. We could hear the kitchen sarcastically hear them commenting about my order and then about our special order too.His plate came out, and we both looked at others, wondering why the meatloaf was in a bowl. The meatloaf was coated in BBQ sauce and wasn't keeping any shape like that of any sauce of meatloaf. He tried it and made a face. Upon hearing the kitchen staff( as usual), we hear about sloppy Joe's being the special for the next day and knew that the meatloaf was the sloppy Joe meat. The "meatloaf definitely tasted of sloppy Joe and not of a meatloaf. Now, we k ow the newest cook is from Colorado. The kitchen can heard word for word over the customers in the restaurant. And they have lost several waitresses. Tonight made us wonder if they lost the other newer ladies as well. Plus, you shouldn't have a young child going in and out of the kitchen( which happened a month or so ago. A little blonde lad. That's a health and safety code violation). This is one of 3 places to eat on this county. Other options being Subway or some hole in the wall Mexican place. Next time, we'll just go home and make a bologna sandwich with chips.

I had tired of expressways and spent the day on state and county highways. I was getting hungry and happened upon K-18 Cafe. The lovely Keera (not a typo) was my server. The chicken fried steak was great and drowning gravy. I added quite a bit of pepper to remind me of home. I ordered a slice of homemade peach pie for the road and enjoyed it two hours later at my gas stop.

I ordered a pumpkin spice chai tea. Absolutely delicious!!! My husband got just regular black coffee and thought it was a bit weak for his taste. The man behind counter was very responsive to questions. The gal that checked us out was maybe new because she appeared to still be working on service skills. This place is a little more than 2 miles off highway 70 as general fyi. The signage for this place is kinda small- the name is written on the window but not on the awning over it. Plus it shares space with some kind of little store which I would have loved to look around but they were closed. Probably saved me money and time!
